Inside the cabin, the STAR EDN gets all-black leatherette upholstery with suede accents, giving the interior a sportier and more premium feel compared to standard variants.
Mechanically, the Thar ROXX STAR EDN remains unchanged and continues to offer Mahindra’s proven powertrain options. These include the 2.0-litre G20 TGDi mStallion petrol engine, producing 130 kW of power and 380 Nm of torque, and the 2.2-litre D22 mHawk diesel engine, which delivers 128.6 kW and 400 Nm. Both engines are available with manual and automatic transmissions, with all variants configured with a rear-wheel-drive system.
Variant-wise, the diesel manual version is priced at ₹16.85 lakh, while the diesel automatic costs ₹18.35 lakh. The petrol automatic variant has been priced at ₹17.85 lakh, with no petrol manual option offered for the STAR EDN.
Since its introduction in 2024, the Thar ROXX has emerged as a strong seller in Mahindra’s SUV lineup, carving out a distinct identity as a lifestyle-oriented off-roader with modern refinements.
With the launch of the STAR EDN, Mahindra is looking to further capitalise on the Thar ROXX’s popularity by appealing to buyers seeking a more premium, design-led iteration of the iconic SUV.
